ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to an internal combustion engine and, in particular, to an improved internal combustion engine having shuttles whose combined rotational and reciprocating motion produce output power and, at the same time, provide valving for the engine. In the preferred embodiment, there are two shuttles which move in opposed directions to balance the engine. The shuttles have a sinusoidal cam mounted about their periphery which is restrained so that the shuttle reciprocates and rotates within the cylinder. Each shuttle has opposed faces with recesses that mate with projections from the cylinder head to define combustion chambers. Ports are formed in the cylinder walls which communicate with ports in the shuttle sleeves to provide intake and exhaust to the combustion chambers.
